PC Dedicated Servers Incoming!

Dedicated Servers are a thing of the very near future for Terraria! Sometime within the next week or so Terraria 1.0.3 will be releasing. With Terraria 1.0.3 comes the new Dedicated Server executable that has DX stripped out so you can run it on your dedicated Windows box without having to have a special dedicated video card.

So many settings and features will also be included like admin commands, configuration settings to toggle features such as Blood Moons, Goblin Attacks, and much much more. You can even make dedicated PVP servers where everyone is force-flagged.

The biggest feature is that play cap is being removed for multiplayer and if your machine can handle it you can have up to 255 players online at once.

Just remember this post covers only the new dedicated server features; there is even more new content coming in 1.0.3 so stay tuned!
